This couple is doing something hilarious with their cats

Let's be honest, we love cats and movies, so an Instagram account that blends the two to hilarious effect was always going to please us. So imagine our delight at spotting the Instagram account @MovieCats on The Metro this morning.

It all began when pub quizmaster David started using pics of him posing with his moggies in his regular Film & TV rounds. 'We thought it would be fun, and it ended up being really popular,' Sarah told Prima.co.uk.

Cue the creation of the couple's dedicated Instagram account, which has since gained nearly 5,000 followers.

So far, the couple has recreated scenes from the movies Ghost, American Beauty, Alien and The Shining.

The stars of the whole show are undoubtedly Tara and Willow, who are rewarded handsomely for their cinematic efforts. 'Our cats aren't fussy, so we use whatever treats we have available,' Sarah told us.

The pics can take up to an hour to snap, because of all the prep involved in nailing the right shot. 'We had to attach a basket to our bicycle and set up outside for the ET scene, and we actually made a clay pot for the Ghost scene,' Sarah told us. We admire this dedication to their craft!

More pics are in the pipeline, although the creative couple won't reveal what's in store for their growing fanbase... 'We have a few ideas, but we can't tell you too much since we do them for the pub quiz,' she added.
